Many kids (specifically boys) play a game called Fortnite. Fortnite is a game where you are put into two teams per server. In Fortnite, once you’re put in teams your adventure begins with you jumping off a bus.
After jumping off the bus you can cut down trees that give you wood to build a fort, open chests that give weapons like: guns, ammo for the guns, woodstone, metal, shield potions of any size, and chug jugs. Another way to get wood is to destroy another player’s fort and collect the pieces. In order to win the game you have to kill all the players on the other team and have at least one player alive on your team to win.
One of the main reasons Fortnite is so popular is because it makes use of player’s skills, unlike most other popular games. The creator of Fortnite is Epic Games (also called People Can Fly). Fortnite was created on July 25, 2017. People have different opinions on whether Fortnite is a waste of time or not.
There have been many rumors about Fortnite shutting down, many of you are probably asking, “Is it true?” The probability is small; there are currently 250 million registered users using Fortnite.
All in all, Fortnite is a pretty violent game and I do not recommend it for younger kids. If you are a Fortnite player and wondering how to cut playing Fortnite here are four steps to stop playing Fortnite.
- Stop going on Fortnite and talking to your friends about it because you might get the urge to play
- Find fun things to do instead of playing Fortnite
- Limit your time on devices
- Get your friends to follow these steps to stop playing Fortnite or help the kids in your class to stop playing Fortnite
